Good morning,
I am using Jetty 9.4.21.v20190926 - as a standalone server behind HAProxy and also I compile my custom WAR servlet against it.
It serves Websockets, GET, POST requests and works very well, thank you!
However now I would like to generate a PNG file using ImageIO and while the code below works for me, I have 2 questions please -
@Override
protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest httpReq, HttpServletResponse httpResp) throws ServletException, IOException {
if ("board1".equals(httpReq.getServletPath()) {
BufferedImage image = ImageIO.read(getResource("ru/game_board_1.png"));
httpResp.setStatus(HttpServletResponse.SC_OK);
httpResp.setContentType("image/png");
httpResp.setContentLength(12345); // question 1: should I call this or will Jetty add it automatically?
ImageIO.write(image, "png", httpResp.getOutputStream());
httpResp.getOutputStream().close(); // question 2: should I close the output stream here or not?
}
}
Question 1: Should I explicitly set Content-Length or will Jetty add it automatically for me? And if I have to set it myself, how to deal with the changed size because of gzip compression?
Question 2: Should I call httpResp.getOutputStream().close() at the end of doGet() or maybe the output stream is still needed to serve other requests because of Keep-Alive?
Thank you
Alex
PS: Below is my very simple config file:
